Some of the country's biggest investment managers have sent a stark signal to Labour MPs. They worry that any attempt to oust Keir Starmer as PM could rattle the markets, weaken the pound and risk a Truss-style shock. As Labour Together, the group that campaigned for Starmer's leadership, tests the waters for potential successors, Sam and Anne unpack what's happening inside the party.In Downing Street Starmer hosts a high stake gathering with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, Emmanuel Macron and Friedrich Merz, as Donald Trump publicly pressures Ukraine to accept his peace terms. Sam and Anne look at what could be unfolding behind closed doors.Plus, in Clacton, Nigel Farage has been reported to police over his electoral expenditure. Reform UK denies the claims.

Following the rather grim comedy of Boris Johnson, the Conservatives gave Britain the even more ridiculous spectacle of Liz Truss. She proceeded to push the British economy to the edge of the abyss, aided and abetted by her Chancellor of the Exchequer Kwasi ‘Kamikwasi' Kwarteng. Fortunately, her colleagues realised what a disastrous mess the Tory membership had made electing Truss leader, and chucked her out again, establishing a new record, previously held by George Canning since 1827, for the shortest tenure of any Prime Minister in office.To the delight of the Daily Star, which livestreamed a lettuce and a photo of Liz Truss, to see whether she could outlast the lettuce, it was the vegetable that won.It was Rishi Sunak who followed her into office, and he worked hard with his Chancellor Jeremy Hunt to get the economy back on its feet. Unfortunately, they went back to the beginning of this long period of Tory rule, to austerity politics. They worked no better second time around than first and only cut the public deficit by a little over half, leaving debt still climbing. Meanwhile, immigration was raising its head again as a key question. Oddly enough, net migration – people in less people out – had risen since Brexit, which many had backed as a way to limit migration in the first place. The new election took place on 4 July 2022. It was an election of fragmentation, with the old dominant parties of Labour and the Tories plumbing new depths of their joint share of the popular vote, while smaller parties – the Liberal Democrats, the Greens and the new kids on the block, Nigel Farage's Reform UK, surging forward.The success of Reform UK was the most striking. And the most ominous for the future of the other parties.Illustration: Liz Truss and the lettuce.

In this episode, we explore the significant developments surrounding the FBI's investigations with Director Kash Patel. From the controversial Arctic Frost investigation targeting President Trump and his allies to the recent breakthroughs in the January 6th bombing case, Patel shares exclusive insights and revelations. Then, former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss sheds light on the deep-rooted connections between the United States and the United Kingdom.

With a focus on the need for a parliamentary shift in the UK, she emphasizes the importance of a movement to counteract the entrenched deep state. The episode also introduces the launch of the Liz Truss Show, aimed at exposing truths and providing a voice to those affected by societal issues in Britain.

There has been a flurry of UK-European activity across Britain this week, with the German state visit in London, the Norwegian Prime Minister signing a defence agreement in Scotland and the British-Irish council meeting in Wales today. Perhaps then it's inevitable that speculation over closer ties between the UK and the EU has re-emerged. Could Labour seek to rejoin the Customs Union? Would this help or hinder Reform? And would the EU even stomach it? Plus – Liz Truss launches a new show today. Will she say anything new?James Heale and Charles Grant from the Centre for European Reform join Patrick Gibbons to discuss.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

On this episode of the podcast, Former UK Prime Minister Liz Truss joins Amanda Head to deliver a powerful and unfiltered conversation about the forces she says are driving the United Kingdom toward collapse and why Americans should see it as a warning sign.Truss pulls back the curtain on what she calls Britain's ‘deepest deep state,' a bureaucracy she argues has been captured by ideological activists, unaccountable judges, and entrenched elites determined to stop meaningful reform. From mass migration and collapsing free speech to grooming scandals and economic decline, Truss outlines how the government and media — especially the mainstream networks — have suppressed truth and undermined democracy.Truss also highlights the launch of her new show, “The Liz Truss Show” which is in partnership with the Just The News Podcast Network — designed to bypass the UK's legacy media and give voice to citizens harmed by failed policies, censorship and reindustrialization.

The IMF suggested that the US government debt-to-GDP ratio will exceed that of Italy by the end of the decade. There is no reason to suppose this IMF forecast is more accurate than any other IMF forecast, but the trend is clear. Italian parallels are a reason not to panic. Italy is a very wealth country, and has successfully mobilized private wealth to help fund its debt. The US is a reasonably wealth country and could do likewise. The UK's Truss debacle reminds us that funding government debt (not the debt level itself) is what matters.

Liz Truss is never far from the shores of the United States, hobnobbing with the folk seeking to "Make America Great Again." What does she think Britain can learn from the second Trump era? Anne McElvoy travels to Washington to talk to the former Conservative Prime Minister Liz Truss, who's on a self-proclaimed “mission” to remake the U.K. in the image of MAGA-land. It's exactly three years since she left Downing Street after just 49 days in office following a mini-budget that sent the markets into freefall — and has haunted  her party ever since. In a wide-ranging interview, Truss tells Anne that the Green Party might end up being the official opposition party after the next general election and argues that voters are sick of "technocratic managerial crap" in politics. She insists that she will foreseeably not be joining Reform UK, despite criticizing her own party's record in office. Truss also pours scorn on both Kemi Badenoch's leadership of her old party and the Labour Chancellor Rachel Reeves, whom she blames for an impending economic crisis. Learn more about your ad choices.

French Prime Minister Lecornu resigned, but will work for 48 hours—President Macron wants Lecornu to find a fiscal solution that would command National Assembly support. Despite obvious parallels, this is not the same as the UK's Truss debacle. The French bond market remains orderly. French assets will command a risk premium, as investors wait to see whether a new government or new elections are the outcome.

Kwasi Kwarteng reflects on what went wrong.The former Chancellor joins Ed Balls to talk through the decisions behind the Truss mini-budget - from bypassing the OBR to what he now calls its “real intellectual failing.” He explains why the Bank of England's intervention “killed the government,” and why he believes his sacking was no coincidence.Kwarteng also looks ahead, urging the Conservative Party and Kemi Badenoch to focus on unity, and warning Rachel Reeves about the political cost of trying to rein in spending.Plus, Ed and George turn to political speechwriting. Who writes the big speeches? What makes them stick? And how do you find the right words for someone else? From Trump rallies to Gordon Brown's “no time for a novice,” the pair give us a peek inside the craft of effective political communication.To get episodes early and ad-free, join Political Currency Gold or the Kitchen Cabinet:

It's been a year since the shocking Southport attacks and the controversial social media crackdown that followed. Gordon Rayner speaks to Simon Pearson, a teacher who lost his job after criticising ‘two-tier justice' in the case of Lucy Connolly who was jailed last year after posting about the summer riots on her X account. In a post on social media, Pearson, who taught adults at Preston College, said Connolly's online comments were “obviously wrong” but she “should not have been jailed”. We hear how Pearson has struggled to find another job after he was sacked and why he is taking legal action. Meanwhile, Tory infighting erupts as Kemi Badenoch and Liz Truss go head-to-head in public. In a Telegraph column, Badenoch blamed Truss's 2022 mini-budget for wrecking the Conservative economic legacy, while Truss accessed Badenoch of repeating “spurious narratives” to deflect from her own party's failures. Tim and Cleo discuss what is really behind this clash and what it means for the party.Producers: Georgia Coan and Lilian FawcettSenior Producer: John CadiganPlanning Editor: Venetia RaineyVideo Editor: Will WaltersStudio Director: Meghan SearleExecutive Producer: Louisa Wells Hosted on Acast.

Part 1 Eats, Shoots & Leaves by Lynne Truss Summary"Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation" by Lynne Truss is a witty and engaging exploration of the importance of punctuation in writing. The book emphasizes how proper punctuation can change the meaning of sentences and affect the clarity of communication.Truss uses the amusing title, derived from a joke about a panda that eats bamboo, shoots (the bamboo), and leaves, to illustrate how punctuation marks can drastically alter interpretations. The book is structured into various chapters that focus on different punctuation marks, including periods, commas, apostrophes, quotation marks, and more, providing historical context, grammatical rules, and humorous anecdotes to highlight common mistakes and misuses.Throughout the text, Truss adopts a light-hearted yet serious tone regarding the decline of punctuation standards in contemporary writing, largely due to the rise of digital communication and informal writing styles. She argues for a return to precision and traditional grammar, emphasizing that punctuation is not just a set of arbitrary symbols but a crucial tool for conveying meaning accurately."Eats, Shoots & Leaves" serves as both a guide and a manifesto for punctuation enthusiasts and those who may be less familiar with grammatical rules. Truss's passion for punctuation shines through, making the subject entertaining and accessible to a wide audience, ultimately advocating for careful and thoughtful writing.Part 2 Eats, Shoots & Leaves AuthorLynne Truss is a British author, journalist, and broadcaster best known for her humorous writing on the subject of grammar and punctuation. Her most famous work, Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation, was released in 2003.

Un'ammissione di responsabilità è arrivata dal premier laburista britannico Keir Starmer per la gestione della riforma del welfare, approvata in modo caotico alla Camera dei Comuni dopo profonde concessioni volte a placare la rivolta interna. Intervistato dalla BBC, Starmer ha riconosciuto di non aver coinvolto abbastanza i parlamentari laburisti, ma ha difeso la cancelliera dello Scacchiere Rachel Reeves, scoppiata in lacrime durante il Question Time. Reeves, sotto pressione per la gestione dei conti pubblici e attaccata dalla leader conservatrice Kemi Badenoch, non ha ricevuto da subito il sostegno esplicito del premier, che ha poi attribuito il pianto a motivi personali. Tuttavia, secondo il Sun, Reeves avrebbe confidato di essere sopraffatta dalla pressione. Entrata già visibilmente provata, si è commossa quando Starmer ha evitato di confermare pubblicamente la sua posizione, lasciando l’aula accompagnata dalla sorella Ellie, anche lei deputata. Le immagini hanno fatto il giro del mondo e generato incertezza nei mercati: lo spread sui titoli di Stato britannici è salito ai livelli del disastroso budget Truss e la sterlina è crollata contro dollaro ed euro. “Le lacrime più costose della Storia”, ha commentato un deputato conservatore. Interviene Giorgia Scaturro, Il Sole 24 Ore LondraDagli albori della raccolta differenziata al primato europeo: 30 anni di raccolta e riciclo di carta e cartone in ItaliaDomani a Cagliari sarà presentato il 30° Rapporto di Comieco sulla raccolta e il riciclo di carta e cartone in Italia, con un focus sui risultati 2024 e una retrospettiva sui 40 anni del Consorzio. La Sardegna ospita l’evento per il suo ruolo guida nel Sud e nelle Isole, con una resa annua di 60,5 kg/abitante. Il report evidenzia come in trent’anni l’Italia abbia moltiplicato per sei e mezzo la propria capacità di raccolta, passando da 10 kg pro capite nel 1995 a 65,4 kg nel 2024. Il volume totale ha superato i 3,8 milioni di tonnellate (+3,5% rispetto al 2023), con il Sud che per la prima volta supera i 50 kg/abitante. Il sistema creato da Comieco, grazie al Contributo Ambientale Conai, genera un ritorno fino al 688% degli investimenti, secondo uno studio NeXt Economia–Symbola. Il Nord si conferma leader, trainato da Veneto, Piemonte ed Emilia-Romagna. Ne parliamo proprio con Carlo Montalbetti, Direttore Generale ComiecoUiv fatturato, dazi e consumi le incognite del vinoLamberto Frescobaldi è stato confermato presidente di Unione italiana vini (Uiv) per il prossimo triennio. L’assemblea nazionale ha sottolineato le preoccupazioni legate a calo di fatturato, dazi e consumi. I dati Uiv mostrano una flessione dell’export di vino italiano negli Stati Uniti in aprile: -7,5% a volume, -9,2% a valore, con un calo del prezzo medio del 2%. La frenata è legata all’introduzione dei dazi da parte dell’amministrazione Trump. Il quadrimestre resta stabile (+0,9% a volume, +6,7% a valore), ma la tendenza è in peggioramento. Nei primi 5 mesi del 2025 i consumi di vino italiano negli USA sono calati del 6,3%, con un -10,6% a maggio. Una delle flessioni più nette degli ultimi anni. Frescobaldi ha sottolineato la necessità di rivedere l’assetto del settore vino e ha annunciato un confronto aperto nella prossima assemblea nazionale del 3 luglio a Roma. Martina Paladin, impegnata nell’export per Casa Paladin, ha confermato come la frenata americana si faccia sentire anche per i produttori più strutturati, sottolineando l’urgenza di nuove strategie sui mercati extra-Ue.

Shadow Chancellor Mel Stride delivered a speech today where he attempted to banish the ghost of Liz Truss and improve the Conservatives' reputation over fiscal credibility. And he compared leader Kemi Badenoch to Thatcher, saying she too struggled at first and will 'get better' at the dispatch box. LBC broadcaster Iain Dale and the Spectator's economics editor Michael Simmons join deputy political editor James Heale to unpack Stride's speech, talk about Labour's latest policy announcement over free school meals and discuss why both the main parties are struggling with fiscal credibility.Plus, Iain talks about his new book Margaret Thatcher and the myths he seeks to dispel. Why does he think the former PM still endures 35 years after she left office?Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The fallout from Trump's tariffs continues. Last week, Donald Trump ended the free-trade era that has underpinned growth for decades (and potentially also heralded the end of globalisation). Markets around the world have taken a nosedive, prompting fears of a global recession. The only (brief) reprieve was when stock markets rallied because of a misunderstanding regarding comments made by Trump's economic adviser. Once these had been clarified, the Nasdaq dipped once again. Republicans are starting to turn on Trump – including Elon Musk, who has been sending out some coded tweets. The strength of the reaction from the markets has drawn comparisons between Trump and Liz Truss, whose mini-Budget spooked the markets so comprehensively that she had to backtrack after just ten days. Might Trump do the same?   Meanwhile, Keir Starmer has intervened in an effort to protect the UK car industry against Trump's 25 per cent tariffs. What other levers can he pull to reduce the impact on Brits?   Lucy Dunn speaks to Katy Balls and Kate Andrews.   Produced by Oscar Edmondson.

Liz Truss, former prime minister of the United Kingdom, says she wants to be part of the “second American revolution” — “Trump-style.” With “Britian heading for bankruptcy,” “grooming gangs,” unchecked immigration, and the rising threat of Islamism, is it too late to Make Europe Great Again? Despite an unhinged deep state and free-speech crackdowns, Liz Truss still has hope, which is why she is working on a new media venture to rival the BBC. She exposes how the Bank of England “turned on her” and then marvels at the incompetence of Canada's new Prime Minister Mark Carney before offering a chilling warning: “If we do not turn this around within 10 years, the West is finished.”           GLENN'S SPONSORS          Relief Factor          Relief Factor can help you live pain-free!
